Which consequence results when sustained electrolysis on water occurs using platinum electrodes?

A)Electrode corrosion releases platinum ions
B)Increased hydrogen gas generation rate
C)Ohmnic heating reduces system efficiency
D)Formation of substantial ozone concentration

💡 Explanation

Electrode corrosion introduces platinum ions because Electrolytic corrosion will oxidize Pt, forming platinum oxides which then may dissolve at low pH via Hydroxylation. The released platinum contaminates rather than pure water electrolysis, therefore inhibiting efficient hydrogen generation.
